[Matrix] choose either the Red or Blue pill.

in the Matrix Neo is asked whether he will choose the red or blue pill.

the blue pill represents life as we know it. we accept life as it is and don't have any desire to question or search
for greater meaning.

the red pill represents the unknown. this is more risky because the results are unknown and could have negative impact.

Choose one and tell why you chose it.

i would choose the red pill not because im a philospher but simply because the idea of seeking truth is very appealing.
i want to understand reality, human nature, evolution, death, and the afterlife etc.
lastly i would choose red simply becasue i am currently bored with life and need to experience some kind of change.

the red pill... the blue is what everyone sees yet i try to look around... *shrugs* there is a reason i'm so
pessimistic- it's because I dont buy into the blue pill lifestyle.. tis all ^_^

besides- the blue pill is full of lies- i'd rather know the truth... may be awful but at least i
know...

fascinating. i agree the blue bill is definetly full of lies and half-truths.
maybe one can only truly get the red pill in death.

but ok... check this out... Morpheus are holding both pills in both hands.... fully available yeah? I would snatch both
pills quickly and devour 'em... this way, i get both options ^_^ hehehe... ...and then i would probably die from an
overdose....

it's a nice thought really- I've always thought of death as a ending to a chaotic dream... so one could only imagine
what goes through your head in those last moments- after that, hell it doesn't really matter now does it? :P

wait a minute... when i come to think of it..... which pill did Neo choose yeah? Wasn't it the red pill?

hahahahaha... reminds me... listen to this.... You all who have seen the Matrix knows that Neo were searching for
Morpheus for a long time, but Morpheus has been searching for Neo his entire lifetime. So of course... Morpheus acts
like some tough dude when they both meets each other for the first time in that building...... but man! How disappointed
Neo must've been when he finally woke up in the Nebuchadnezzar and realised that Morpheus no longer got those stylish
fashion clothes, and just some crappy clothes yeah? XD hahaha... ^_^'

so true. to me life "here" is hell; i just can't phantom a worse place. :angry: death is a release from
the pain of living.. :)

[bel-san] that's the best avatar since the 1st one. nice job

xand [mate] even though your a superkickass dude im certain you would OD. sometimes that's not a bad thing.

hahaha.... well, i don't do drugs... i do babes..... so OD's are pretty much out of question... ^_^

but wait a minute now my fellow comrades.... see.... if you don't like the life here on the planet, you can easily
leave, the price being either painful and/or painless. Else.... there's nothing much we can do by living here right?
So.... how did that song go now.... oh yeah!

"Don't worry... be happy..... oooh ooooh ooh oh oh"

true but Bob Marley's dead so maybe he knew in advance about the red pill. :o

and yeah, it would bother me alot too... as Neo in the movie.... everything he knew, every memory he had, his childhood,
his career, it was all a lie. Man, he realised that he's just spent 20 ~ 25 years being a prisoner of a surreal
world..... ^_^' well.... that's his prob... hahaha...

Red pill : Know the truth before I die
I know life sucks as it is. So I'll go with red and die knowing the truth. But it wouldn't be bad to live in a lucid dream or fake reality. Just as long as the dream don't become a
nightmare...

knowing the truth and the delusion is always better than not knowing the truth at all ^_^

as Neo and Cipher, both of them knows about the Matrix and the real world. Them both could plug right into the matrix
whenever they wanted to. It's similar to our reality; you're awake (real world) and you're asleep (the matrix).

eh i wouldnt take either cuz how do i kno if the world they take me to is acutally truth or lies
u say the red one gives u the option to search for truth but if ive been living in a world of lies den how could i
differentiate truth from lies...id probably do wat xand first said n take both n die from overdose b4 i over analyze it
n my head blows up
